∞Up for Adoption∞

Nestly: Alright. Hello, Nestly here. X3 Just making a quick page to display which neopets of mine I'm having trouble with making designs and such for, therefor I'm looking for good owners for them. Most of these pets were given to me, or I happen to have, blah blah... either way, I just really can't think of anything for them, and I hate seeing nice pets rott away and go to waste.
I do my adoptions a little different then most people around neo. Not how they are transferred, but how I personally decide. So bare with me here.
Newzzz
July 17th
Nestly: Okay dokey. So I've been getting a fair amount of applications so far. Though most have been favoring the same pets, so it's just a little tough to deside right now since I haven't been able to pick people out of the groups easily, (meaning they all have pretty much the same qualities) Sooo, I just wanted to jump in here and say a few things that might help people out. :3
So for more inf0rmation about how to make a good impression on me to adopting these pets, and what I'm looking for- blahblahblah, please view the table unerneath the rules. xD
Thanks!
Here are some nifty rules for people interested:
∞Yummy Rules∞
Literacy is a must. Trust me, I know who's literate and who isn't. Talk how you normally would and tell me a little about yourself. I'll be able to tell what kind of a person you are depending on your talking skills, but I'm not gonna judge you right offhand.
Pet Page applications? Um.. o_o; If you really want to and if you want to fit more in your app then neomail allows, go right ahead. For most pets I have here though, it really isn't required.
Your account must be 4 months, of course. Most of these pets won't be able to be picked up with anything under 4 months due to the neopet rule thingie.
Side accounts are fine, as long as you don't go on it once a year, or whatever. Please mail me on your Main account though, so I can see what your current neopets look like, and how things go with you.
Please try to contact me out of neomail. My neomail stinks and I hate using it. AIM me at nestly25 or nestly52@hotmail.com for MSN. D8 OR e-mail me at nestly52@yahoo.com. These are the best ways to get a hold of me if you can over neomail. Please tell me your business though. n_n; I'd appreciate knowing who you are and what your messages are about. xD
Do NOT bug the crap outa me on my messangers. DX Sometimes I have a lot of people talking to me and can't keep up. If you catch me during the late hours of the night though I'll probabaly be able to talk more. x3
Art and Roleplay. I know a lot of people don't do these, maybe can't.. but I am a spaz for nice art and roleplaying skills. If consider yourself fair at these qualities, you have a MUCH better chance. D:
Obviously you're required to provide a character for the pet. Like as in, you need to give him/her a personality, design, possible past story and stuff. You don't have to do all this, but show that you might in the future.
You NEED to know how to transfer well. I am EXTREMELY paranoid with transfers, especially if the person has only done it once or is hasty and messes up. It's all fine and dandy if I'M adopting the pet, because I know what I'm doing, but with someone else, I have to depend completely on them, so... please know what yer doing. X3
I DON'T do transfers over neomail, okay? My browser is really wierd and doesn't like neomails; messes them up. So You will need to have AIM. It's the only instant message program I'm comfortable with now, so I'm sorry if you don't have it, but it IS free. :B (UPDATE: MSN is fine too.)
....Am I missing anything? Um.. well whatever. I'll add more later if I must. You get the point. o-o;

∞Helpful Hints∞
Nestly: Okay, I'll just start randomly on what I'm looking for, eh heh. X3 Just to separate some people from the competition. (I feel really bad about adoptions simply because not EVERY person applying can have that single pet. ;_;)
So for the people applying over neomail, well. Here's the thing. XD I'm really lazy, if you have something extremely long, it looks a little boring on the neomail. (Those of you breaking it up into 2 or more parts because of it's length) I apologize but, what you need to know is I'm not very serious with adoptions. x3; See it's not a big deal for me with most of these pets, and though I'm not looking for a HUGE flashy application, (like you see everywhere these days. T-T) I do need a little effort. xD So anyways, where was I going? Oh yeah, if you've gotta lot of length to a description or application of any sort, and even so long it won't fit on one neomail, it really is best to stick what you want to say on a pet page or something. XD
No, this doesn't mean making an application, (although some could call it that) It doesn't really take that much effort, really. Just so long as it's organized and I can READ it easily, (I really can't stand reading tiny font on strange colored backgrounds that don't fit well) I don't care otherwise what's on it. You see this page layout I'm using right here? This is a basic table, nothing special, easy to use. I could care less if you used a similar code to this and put text up on it. That's all it takes. XD No special HTML skills needed. Just do what looks nice.
So ANYWAYS. A lot of the people applying also seem very young. (whether claiming their parents have restrictions on things, or just not knowing how to do various things) well.. I'll be honest. o_o; I'm not really used to anyone under 12 or 13.. and er, if you have restrictions such as not being able to get art up on the computer... or things like that, it makes it tough, doesn't it? x3;
And a lot of people neomailing me said they've never transferred. o_o; Er... hardly know how.. and look people. xD; I really can't teach you how. Unless your application really impresses me I could possibly tell you how over AIM but; if you don't know how to transfer, either find out from neopet help sites, (Like Neopound.com) or don't ask me. n_n;
As for being f0rmal...(I SWEAR, neopets blocks the stupidest words. x_x) er.. you know, being really really serious. Don't bother. XD Can you tell how many text faces I use when I type? (XD, X3, n_n;, o_o;, and so on.) I really don't care if you use some faces er humor it a little. XD I like FUNNY! D8
Being serious is nice, but you don't have to call me miss Nestly and bow when you mail me. o.o; I'm not that great. xD
If your going to make an application. Please don't spend a LONG time on it. I know that sounds weird, I mean, you can if you want. But I'm really against insanely long and time consuming applications. (You can find out more about that from the link on the bottom of this page)
Just do what you can, what your capable and like... you know, a preview of how your going to use the pet, your new character, and whatever you can to make it nice. ^^
Another advantage of quick page apps rather then neomail is that you know what it'll look like before the neomail possibly messes up and goes to me. :B I have this problem, so.. you know. Firefox and neomail = Not good. DX
Hmmm... what else can I say to help... *ponders* Erm.. I dunno, I think that should be good for now. n_n; Probably made this longer then I should've anyways. I'm a chatterbox okay!? ;_; Alright. Thanks for reading. Good luck. ^.^

∞DA LIST∞
Nestly: So.. here are the list of neopets I've got..
I'm going to put a small description for each one about their past and how I got them and such. ...Not like anyone really CARES, but hopefully it'll give you an idea of what I want for them if your interested. o:
Arubasnapper

Gender: Male
Color: White
Competition: 2 or 3. Not much but I need to review more closely what I got so far.
History: Not much on Aruba. I never did anything with him. XD He was just one of the neos lurking on the Lunartwist18 account my friend gave to me. Though I'm not much for his name, so I don't have a problem giving him up at all. :3
Qualifications: Not looking for great art, skill or extreme talent, I just need something at least decent enough for a white Zafara is all. Decent design and interesting personality. By the way, he is painted, but since white is not considered 'rare' by the pound standards and he is indeed level 1, you don't need a 4 month old account for this fella. Though I do still expect some experience. X3
Maginoa

Gender: Female
Color: Robot
History: Maginoa came into my possession quite a long time ago. One of my old highschool friends zapped her into a robot and I adopted her from him. I was extremely happy, since I'd always wanted a robot, and I made a picture and a few guidelines for stories, but soon after someone (one of my old friends most likely) got in and locked me out of my account I couldn't do anything with her for a couple years. In that time my artstyle changed a bunch, and I couldn't draw robots like I used too. The e-mail to the account Maginoa was on was my dad's, (why I couldn't get into it) but recently my dad called me and told me the access word for the account. I was overjoyed to FINALLY get back into 'Insane_Bliss', but as I said, by now I'd lost interest in Maginoa's character since I never thought I'd get this account back. So unless I can think of something good enough, I wanna see what other's have in mind. ^^
I will most likely NOT be keepeing her, (And Zarlon) so please feel free to apply. I'd really love for someone to take her and do something interesting with her. ;-;
Qualifications: I know robots aren't really that popular, (as characters at least) but they are a rare, lab-only color and because Maginoa has a long history with me I really wanna see someone with experience and art/RP skills take her. Don't care about side accounts or strict rules, I just want someone literate and skilled to help create her character and adopt her. ^^; That's all really.
Zarlon

Gender: Male
Color: Robot
History: Zarlon I actually adopted. I wanted to have him for an evilish bad guy sort of character for another one of my characters, so I sent a neomail to the owner in-invalid_word-ing that I was interested. I started the application, (his picture design and stuff) but never really got around to the rest since I didn't really need his character anymore for my other characters past. (confusing. x_x;) However, the owner neomailed me later asking if I was still applying, and if I'd take him, (since she knew me around to be a good neo-artist I guess) and because I wanted to give him a good charatcer, I took him on one of my accounts... but sadly I've never been able to think of anything for him. x__x; I feel so encredibly horrible about it since I told her I would, but I have too many characters to take care of, so hopefully I can find someone to give him an awsome character and design. I'd love to see that. n_n;
Qualifications: Same basic rules as Maginoa. I want someone literate who'll give him a neat personality and design. I'm not too picky but I will want decent effort, so do your best and thank you much. ^.^
The Deal with Maginoa & Zarlon
 
The 'deal' with these two Robot Acaras, is that if your are interested, feel free to apply for both of these pets in the same app. A male and female Robot Acara, it's not often I'd have both like that, so I think it'd be fun to see thier personalities and pasts somehow connect or whatever. As siblings, rivals, partners or something like that. I think i'd be neat. XD So if you can and want to, go right ahead. :3
Kahlli

Gender: Female
Color: Halloween
History: No history really. I adopted this girl from my pal Grind. I was gonna make her some kind of evil character for some story or whatever but never got around to it, do she's just sort of been sitting there. I've tried a design for her but nothing interesting comes up for her. She may be a Nimmo, but I think Nimmos would be an easy anthro character to design for. Halloween no less would be neat. x3 I would just make her look mostly human. But hopefully someone will take interest enough to adopt her. n_n;
Qualifications: Same basic qualifications as the others. Literacy, Rolplaying and art experience, such and such. I just need to see effort and find your appliation interesting and appealing. X3
Onewi

Gender: Male
Color: Skunk
Competition: I think a couple. Not sure yet.
History: Onewi was just one of the Koi I created on the last Koi day release. Was a she; I shoved her onto my labray account and her gender changed along with her color. So now he is a painted pretty Koi and ready to find a new home. x3 That's all really.
Qualifications: Me loves the anthro Koi. So if you'd like to scoop up Onewi and make him a cool anthro Koi character that's A-okay with me. I'm just basically looking for decent effort and art/RP stuffs. Always open to acceptions though and ideas. 83
Koko_Chil

Gender: Female
Color: Ghost
Competition: At least 4-5. Including a friend of mine that possably might want to apply. Still looking though. It's a little sketchy right now.
History: Nothin' really. Koko came along with Aruba up there. Nothing special, her story is the same and she needs a cool home to go to now. I don't really want her at all, so she's not gonna be that tough to grab unless I get more then a couple apps. X3
Qualifications: Um well... like I said. Same as the others. Literacy, possibly art and roleplay skills. Story writing and the likes. Though, I'm not looking for anything brilliant, just something so she won't rott on an account. D:
Azkoree

Gender: Male
Color: Halloween
Competition: Ehhh, I think 2. Still looking into them.
History: Yay for Azko! ;o; Azko was the first pet I adopted on my labray account. (Other then Cripts who was created) And I adopted her from the pound as a blue female Lupe I think it was. She had somewhat of a personality from what I gave her, along with all the temperary lab-rats there. XD Anyways, the gender changed and Azko soon after got zapped into a Christmas Lupe. I stopped zapping him for a while as I was zapping other pets and moving them around. After some months, Azko got another zap and believe it or not, Halloween on the first one. I like the werewolfish color, so I thought I'd keep him like that and see if any potential owners were out there for him. ^^ I really kinda like this guy since I've had him for quite a while, so, it will take effort to adopt him. XD
Qualifications: Literacy. NO spam, chatspeak, begging, being a persuader, (like lying or trying to get on my good side annoyingly) and blah blah blah. Now that all that icky stuffs out of the way: I just want a cool character for this guy. Some funny or intense, interesting story for him, design and that kind of stuff. He's gonna need to be anthro, I dunno why, but I just really want him to be. xD Besides, look at the Halloween Lupe, it's already like, half anthro anyways. See if you can inpress me. 83
Genis

Gender: Male
Color: Striped
Competition: None.
History: Ahhh darn. DX I hate to put this little guy up for adoption but I serious am never gonna do much with him. I adopted Genis from a friend of mine. He was a yellow Kyrii and I morphed him into an yellow Aisha for a character I had planned for an alien aisha I wanted to adopt. Never got the aisha, so Genis's idea and picture were scrapped. Then later I moved him to my labray account and zapped him striped. I figured that was good enough and sent him back. Since then he's just been sitting there. +_+;
I LOOOOVE Genis. His name alone is love. If anyone is familliar with the Tales of Symphonia game, you'd know where his name comes frome. (A character in the game) So yer gonna have to pry him away with a good application if you really want him.
Qualifications: Same basic qualifications as the others. Literacy, Rolplaying and art experience, such and such. I want one element from his name history in your idea/app. You don't have to base him off the character in the game, just use some sort of creative idea to use for him. x3 When I drew him I him the same hair as the real Genis. That's just an exapmle.

∞FAAAAAAAQQSS∞
Nestly: Fancy that. D: Nestly actually got off her rear and made a FAQs section. Heeere we go.
Question: Can I change the gender to the pet I want to adopt if I get him/her?
Nestly: Sure. XD Usually I'll say yes. I usually won't really care and if you can do it, go ahead. It's not like I can stop you when you have the pet anyway. O.o
Question: Can I make a petpage application anyway?
Nestly: Like I said. DX I feel really bad when someone puts in the work to make one, and then for no reason if they are rejected or I was just to lazy to go through apps. x.x;; (Yeah, I'm sorry, I just lose track easliy) Your welcome to, of course, but heed my warning young neopian, heed it. ...Am I even spelling heed right? D8
Question: Can I take them on a side account?
Nestly: I don't care about sides. D: As long as they look presentable as a main account would and the pet wouldn't rot there. XD Just common sense people.
Question: Will you wait for my account to age so I can adopt?
Nestly: Sure. 83 I'm in no hurry. Just make an immpression on me so I don't forget you and abandon the pet before that happens. xD Poke me with a stick every week or something. I dunno. D8
Have any questions? I'll be happy to post it up here if ya dooooo~
|
Nestly: And.... That's all I got right now! 83 Thanks for stoppin' by and I look forward to seeing some potential owners for these guys. xD
By the way, I don't really have deadlines. I wait until I see a good enough owner and set a time for them to be adopted. If you are concerned that they will be adopted before you are done with an application or.. like you couldn't find the time yet, just send me a reminder that you would like me to wait for a reasonable time. :3 I usually don't make decidions that fast unless I really liked the applicant. X3 So don't be too paranoid.
Nestly: Myeh. -w-
